Yes, it is a relay timer, and they are known to cause issues. It sounds like the timer side if the relay was faulty. Those relays are a fairly standard item and used in older vehicles and plant. Modern cars have the glowplugs controlled by the ecu, where it looks at the ambient temp, and the coolant temp to decide ‘if’ and how long.
